Hmm from the docs I'm deriving this doesn't work for multiple users unless you install it as a Mattermost plugin?

That's right, the stand-alone personal desktop is an option for single users.
If you're looking to use Focalboard for multiple users, you can use it in Mattermost where it's integrated as Boards: https://mattermost.com/boards/

What am I missing? The server version works great with multiple users as long as you invite the second one with a link...

Yep, our self hosted Focalboard server works with multiple users. I had a bit of trouble figuring out that the share link is used to trigger the set up of additional users. I was initially looking for a link labeled "create account" or similar. I've been really happy with it and love its simplicity.

Where did you see that?
> The first user registration will always be permitted, but subsequent registrations will require an invite link which includes a code. You can invite additional users by clicking on your username in the top left, then selecting “Invite users”.

You can use it with multiple users without being a mattermost plugin
(try it out yourself -- docker run -p 8000:8000 mattermost/focalboard)
